First off, thank you for the time it takes to read this through!
Ok, so I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium, service pack 1, 64 bit version.
Java version is 1.7.0, build b147.
I recently upgraded both my Java Runtime Environment, and my basic Java versions, and after doing that and restarting my computer, my minecraft no longer works. However, the minecraft server console works, and my friends CAN connect and play on my minecraft server; I just can't get my minecraft to launch so that I can play on my server.
My old versions of Java and JRE were located in my Program Files (x86), but when I uninstalled those and then reinstalled using the latest versions, I put them in my Program Files (The non-x86 one). Copy/pasting from PF to PF (x86) does not fix the issue.
My minecraft is updated to version 1.7.4, and every time I try to launch it, the java-console-looking screen pops up and disappears, and the game doesn't launch. It does, however, provide me with an error report. The pastebin link is http://pastebin.com/h2RH0ky9
My Environment Variables pathways for CLASS, CLASSPATH, and PATH are all set to C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin and my JAVA_HOME is set to C:\Program Files\Java\jre7 (Seeing as I installed both of the newest versions in program files, not program files (x86)
Really hoping you guys can help me out. Any extra information you need, post requesting it and I'll get it as soon as I can. Keep in mind I'm a basic-to-mid-level computer user, so you may have to dumb down some of your more techy answers/questions.
Thanks in advance!
Edit: I forgot to mention that deleting the .minecraft folder and trying again does not fix the issue. It also doesn't generate any files in the .minecraft folder when I try running the minecraft.exe
Never mind, I have found the solution; Minecraft.exe, when I was running it before, was sitting on my desktop.
On a complete whim, I moved it to the Appdata\.minecraft folder, ran it again and *poof*, it downloaded and installed itself, and I'm able to play again.
Boy, do I feel dumb.
